Kings' Careers: The Access Factor

16/4/2024

0 Comments

 
In this interview with Dr Rianna Walcott, Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Maryland and King’s Alumni, we discuss careers in academia. Rianna talks through her own career journey and demystifies the process of pursuing an academic career – something she had to navigate as the first person in her family to do so. She also discusses her experience as one of only a handful of Black academics in the UK higher education system, including the unpaid labour that often falls upon Black members of staff, as well as how this compares to her experience in the US university system.
